Pearl Damask Gabbeh, Hand-Knotted Afghan Wool & Silk Rug

• Material: hand-spun wool with silk highlights, hand-knotted
• Vacuum gently on low suction without a beater bar; the silk areas are delicate
• Blot spills immediately with a clean, dry cloth; never rub
• Professional cleaning only for wool and silk blends; avoid home wet-cleaning and harsh chemicals
• Use a rug pad, rotate periodically, and keep out of direct sunlight to protect the silk and colours
• Light shedding is natural for hand-knotted pile and eases with time

An ogee, or onion-dome, lattice is one of the most enduring patterns in textile history, running from Ottoman silks to French damask. Here it is hand-knotted in wool and silk: rows of beaded medallions in pearl and silver float over a charcoal ground, each one filled with a delicate floral heart.

The cool, lustrous palette gives the rug a quiet glamour that suits both modern and classic rooms. As a hand-knotted one-of-a-kind in wool and silk, no other rug shares its exact medallions and sheen.
